5-6 billion people are going to have their living standards and reproductive opportunities destroyed anyway.

If not worse.

But you're really just remaking the point that as a species we're incapable of intelligent collective management of our resources.

Coordination problems are really really really hard. You shouldn't be dismissive about them.

You are right. But good luck convincing those billions to voluntarily reduce their living standards. I fear change will have to come involuntarily.
